Veggies and sauces.
Ray N.

LUINI - you are a great chef with a big heart. NATHAN - thank you for being an awesome host/manager/cashier and welcoming me to your wonderful restaurant for the first time. This is a very simple and basic operation with a very tasty finished product. I went in, picked up a fresh and clean bowl, loaded it up with shrimp, ( other meats available) tofu, garlic, scallions, cilantro, broccoli and pints of teriyaki sauce, and loads of fresh garlic & curry sauce. There is a lot of variety in the meats, veggies and sauces, toppings and spices. Then place the bowl and watch the happy and eclectic Luini do his thing as he happily prepares the masterpiece and pours it into a to go container. Nathan grabs it, weighs it( $9.95/lb throws in some free steamed rice and soy & hot sauces and Voila- behold and enjoy this wonderful, tasty and invigorating combo. Mine was approx $20 ( video) and I barely got through half. Loved it. Drinks are extra. Once again this is not a fancy restaurant. No serving staff, no host or hostess , no reservations- just pick your ingredients, then pick them up when done, pay and eat after seating yourself. Drop off the bowls when done by the main door. I loved it! Definitely will be back.

I came here on a Sunday around 5 PM and it was pretty empty. You can smell the food outside when you walk in. There is a simple single file line where you gather your ingredients. There can be a traffic jam if the people in front are slow. That wasn't the case this time around since it only took me two minutes to get my food onto the grill. There are three people at the grill and they are a well oiled (pun intended) machine. It only took me 5 minutes since I stepped into line to have my food fully cooked. The building is spacious and there are plenty of tables to eat at. The restaurant is also very take-out friendly. It's fun seeing how much everything shrinks. The food is pretty solid and I appreciate seeing the staff going around to cleaning and restocking frequently. At least in my experience, this is a great place to squeeze in a quick meal before/after going to the Ontario airport.

Wife and I came here first time. Clean, spacious, food is fresh, wide variety of ingredients, and lots of choices for sauces! Chef techniques are good, comes with free rice, Hygienic as well, what more can you ask for? Oh.. also THEY OFFER LAMB!!!!! (As of May 2026 anyways) , that's GOAT

It's been about 7 years since I've been here. We were around the area after moving and wanted to come again. Big mistake. They charge by the lb now. And they weigh right before paying. Which they add liquid while cooking which makes it heavier at checkout. Toppings weight differently corn is much heavier than spinach. This type of charging method isn't fast in my opinion. Two plates for $60 is ridiculous. Go eat a nice steak dinner for that price. Or order online. Seems to be cheaper price online. Also if you e At in they give you to go containers. Definitely not what it use to be. Will not be coming back. I feel robbed.

Food was great and enough for 2 people depending on how much you add to your bowl. We still had leftovers and staff were very friendly. First time to a Mongolian location. Seemed like it was closed because of how empty it was and the chairs were stacked up on the tables. Quiet, family friendly environment. Will be stopping by again if I'm in the area!

My favorite stir fry. You make your own plate and want you want on it. Been going there for years. It won't be disappointed. Always go back for more

Digvijay S.

Loved the variety of meats, vegetables, and sauces available. Everything was fresh and neatly prepped. The chef took his time cooking, and it showed the food was flavorful, and the meat was perfectly tender. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better.

Shelby C.

Food: Soooo good! You get to pick exactly what YOU want and put how much YOU want! It's so amazing! And it comes with some rice if you want too! Service: Perfect! Everyone was so nice, they cook your food right in front of you. And you pay by the pound! Inside: There are a lot of seating spaces inside, and they have a fountain drink machine! Outside: They have a very spacious outdoor seating area for all the businesses around. It's on a major street, so it can get pretty loud. But it is a nice area too!

Use to be ayce buffet...now its behind glass, by the pound , everything is extra charge....Go to RC Mongolian...old school buffet style

Love this place. I usually get 2 bowls love how you add what you want as much as you want. Prices are okay you pay for quality to he honestly everything is extremely fresh

Overpriced food & drink.
Alex M.

Restaurant has lost its touch--$4 fountain drinks, no egg rolls or pocket bread, and badly prepared rice. Fresh bar was nice, but surprise sauces when cooking the food and high prices make it hard to recommend.

5 Stars -- Great Little Find!…read more RC Mongolian BBQ was really good! When we showed up, there weren't any other customers, so the experience felt more personal and relaxed. The place was clean, nicely decorated, and had a really welcoming atmosphere. The food looked fresh, especially the meat. Once they cooked everything up with all the different sauces, the flavors blended together perfectly. Everything came out delicious and had great flavor. Definitely a 5 out of 5 for me! Great job, RC Mongolian BBQ -- we'll definitely be back!

My family and I stumbled upon RC Mongolian BBQ Buffet when returning a rental car nearby. Growing…read moreup there was a solid AYCE Mongolian BBQ spot we used to go to, but they closed several years ago and we've never found anything even close to comparable...until now. The offerings are quality and the staff are efficient and warm. Definitely a solid find in the area. RC Mongolian BBQ Buffet is located in a strip mall off of Foothill Boulevard in Rancho Cucamonga. They have plenty of free parking shared among the businesses in the shopping center with several spots close to the front of the restaurant. The establishment is a good size inside. Plenty of tables, spaced out comfortably. They have a small area of hot food/appetizers to complement your mongolian bbq creation. The offerings included soup, rice, egg rolls, meatballs, sesame roll, and a fried donut. The mongolian bbq options are diverse. We came for dinner and they had several proteins to pick from. I was excited they had shrimp which, I gather, is a dinner option. There were also lots of veggie, sauce, and garnishing to truly make a noodle dish that you love. The price was a little higher than anticipated, especially for our baby who barely ate a palm-sized amount of food. They still charged us the lowest child's fee. Other than that, we did have a nice meal and would return again in the future.

The banner outside was advertising their lunch and dinner specials so I decided to visit. I ordered…read morethe Spicy Basil lunch special and a Thai ice tea. The dish is made with ground chicken stir fried with onions, red peppers, and Thai basil. I ordered it mildly spicy and it was just right with a slight amount of kick. The lunch specials come with a salad and vegetable egg roll. The salad is a spring mix with a nice, rich tasting homemade dressing that had a touch of basil flavor. The vegetable egg roll was freshly fried and tasted good as well. Thai ice tea was refreshing and not too sweet. Overall, a very delicious lunch. Staff are welcoming and friendly. The dining room is spacious, airy, and clean. Price wise the food is definitely worth it because of the quality ingredients and preparation. I would definitely return to try the other items on the menu.

Our recent visit to Grove Thai Restaurant was disappointing due to several clear issues:…read more Atmosphere: The air conditioning was not working, which made the restaurant very hot and left a bad smell inside. Cleanliness: Before we even ordered, we saw three dead gnats sitting on our table, so it did not look like it was wiped clean or sanitized. Staff Appearance: The workers were wearing simple everyday clothes and skirts, which made the staff look unorganized and unprofessional. Food Quality: The food tasted uneven. Some bites were way too salty, while other bites were too sweet. Also, the menu picture showed a whole bowl of salad, but we only got three small leaves of lettuce. Drink Service: Our water came with a tiny piece of lemon smaller than a dime (see photo). When we asked for more, they said they ran out of fresh lemons and brought us a small dish of liquid lemon juice instead. Surprise Charges: When the bill came, they added a $2 extra fee for beef that was never printed on the menu or told to us when we ordered. UPDATE FOLLOWING OWNERS RESPONSE: You only addressed 1 issue from all the problems I listed out. And, even if an additional charge is listed for a lunch special that claims to be 13.95$. As customer we expect to pay exactly that 13.95$. In addition to that waiter usually mention the extra charge for customers that missed the notice on the menu.

Reading some of the previous reviews gave me a chuckle. What do you mean it was too cold inside?…read moreYou're about to stuff your face over an open fire grill. Don't want to be sweating while you're eating. Coming from highland/redlands, I am happy that there is a ayce kbbq spot in close proximity. Starting with cons: the parking is absolutely terrible. Parking spots are cramped and there's simple not enough spaces, especially during peak times. Pros: now as a long time ayce bbq lover, I understand that red castle quality is not top tier and I don't expect it to be when I go. I view red castle as an affordable joint to get my brisket and beef belly fix, which are the only two items that I basically get. It's odd reading about others experience with service, because every time I go, the service is always fast. I don't need to ask for the grill change because they are fully staffed and consistently checking in. Sure, the hospitality could improve a little but realize what you're going in there for. To stuff ya face! If you're coming here and comparing this place to other kbbq joints, you'll surely be let down. But to enjoy ayce protein for ~25 bucks without having to clean and prep a solid meal, many would realize the true gem that is Red Castle. I remember when their ayce was 13-15 bucks when they opened. Those were the days. I'm also glad that they allow single dining during the week. Not something that I'm able to take advantage of most of the time bc of work but I'm glad it's offered. To all the kbbq snobs (I'm one of them still). Go pay 40 for ayce somewhere else and be happy. Red castle is my go to for a quick fix that is close to home and affordable.

Let's be honest .. this place is very MID KBBQ . The wait times are ridiculous and parking is a…read moredisaster especially on a busy street tucked close to a residential neighborhood. I wouldn't call this place BEST in the IE even if call it a place that's somewhat budget friendly in addition to a service fees and adding on the tip for service that's bare minimum. Quality of meats very fatty & poor & the ban chan (side dishes) are extremely overly saturated with sauce and Kim chi that wasn't fresh it was more on the SOUR and just disgusting in flavor , texture and color it doesn't seem Authentic if you know the difference of real Kim chi from other restaurants. Made several attempts to flag our server which seemed flustered and overwhelmed just for ordering extra meats and replenishing our beverages was such a huge in convenience. For KBBQ definitely in this order I'd say .. local restaurants I'd rather go to Wang Cho in riverside or chino hills U grille 2 spots in Rancho Cucamonga and As far as ayce self serve Koreana grille Riversde . If you wanna travel out hit up Orange County , Rowland heights , LA , SGV for the real deal . Would i dine here again , negative it's disgusting and poor quality of meats very fatty and rubbery texture and ban chan & soups that aren't authentic this restaurant is catered to a particular budget demographic and everything isn't just poor quality. Eating kbbq is more than just eating meat & drinkin beer .. Realistically but do what you wanna do ..
